introduction: [This novel is fully written and completed. Daily updates until finished.] He bleeds to navigate a labyrinth of stone, hunting the horror wearing his lover’s face. Zeek has failed. Again. Every expedition into the Heart of Sorrows ends the same way: his companions dead, their souls feeding the labyrinth''''s endless hunger. But he can''''t stop. Not while Lilliana—the woman he loves—remains trapped in the Black Garden, her humanity draining with each passing day. Armed with a blood-soaked map bound to a dead friend''''s soul, Zeek assembles one last desperate crew: a brutal mercenary hunting his fallen men, a fire-wielding scholar with links to ancient royalty, and a smoke-wreathed queen, the last of her people. Together they descend into a living nightmare where walls shift, the dead rise, and corrupted gods feast on divine souls. But the deeper Zeek ventures, the clearer one truth becomes: saving Lilliana may require destroying what''''s left of her. And the labyrinth has other plans. For fans of Dark Souls, Malazan, and dungeon horror that doesn''''t pull its punches.
